public class LateralTCPSender
extends Object
```
This class is based on the log4j SocketAppender class. I'm using a different repair structure, so it is significantly different.

public LateralTCPSender(ITCPLateralCacheAttributes lca)
                 throws IOException
```
    Constructor for the LateralTCPSender object.
    
    Parameters:
    lca -
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException
- Method Detail
  - init
```
protected void init(String host,
        int port)
             throws IOException
```
    Creates a connection to a TCP server.
    
    Parameters:
    host -
    port -
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException
  - send
```
public <K,V> void send(LateralElementDescriptor<K,V> led)
          throws IOException
```
    Sends commands to the lateral cache listener.
    
    Parameters:
    led -
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException
  - sendAndReceive
```
public <K,V> Object sendAndReceive(LateralElementDescriptor<K,V> led)
                      throws IOException
```
    Sends commands to the lateral cache listener and gets a response. I'm afraid that we could get into a pretty bad blocking situation here. This needs work. I just wanted to get some form of get working. However, get is not recommended for performance reasons. If you have 10 laterals, then you have to make 10 failed gets to find out none of the caches have the item.
    
    Parameters:
    led -
    
    Returns:
    ICacheElement
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException
  - dispose
```
public void dispose(String cache)
             throws IOException
```
    Closes connection used by all LateralTCPSenders for this lateral connection. Dispose request should come into the facade and be sent to all lateral cache services. The lateral cache service will then call this method.
    
    Parameters:
    cache -
    
    Throws:
    
    IOException
  - setTcpLateralCacheAttributes
```
public void setTcpLateralCacheAttributes(ITCPLateralCacheAttributes tcpLateralCacheAttributes)
```
    Parameters:
    tcpLateralCacheAttributes - The tcpLateralCacheAttributes to set.
  - getTcpLateralCacheAttributes
```
public ITCPLateralCacheAttributes getTcpLateralCacheAttributes()
```
    Returns:
    Returns the tcpLateralCacheAttributes.
  - setRemoteHost
```
public void setRemoteHost(String remoteHost)
```
    Parameters:
    remoteHost - The remoteHost to set.
  - getRemoteHost
```
public String getRemoteHost()
```
    Returns:
    Returns the remoteHost.
